Dress codes are important when you’re visiting certain places, such as the government offices or the court. However, do places for business transactions have the need for a stricter dress code? At what point does it begin to become a nuisance to the public?

Just last night (August 7), a politician, Quek Tai Seong shared an image of a signage that shows the dress code at a Perodua Service Centre in Kuantan. It’s surprising that there’s a dress code for a vehicle’s service centre but here’s what the visitors should wear, and shouldn’t.

According to the picture, visitors are not allowed to wear short skirts, shorts, ripped jeans and sleeveless clothes. Men are only allowed to wear shirt with necktie and a long pants, while the ladies should be dressed in long skirts and a long sleeve shirt. It looks a lot like a formal outfit on your regular working day.

“Is this Perodua’s instruction for the service centres in the whole country? Or is this outlet taking matters into their hand?” Quek asked in his post.

It didn’t take long for Malaysian netizens to get their attention on the dress codes, and some of them took the time to bombard Perodua official Facebook page with angry remarks. The question is, do visitors really need to follow the dress code when visiting their service centre in Kuantan, or any other outlets in Malaysia?

“The signage was indeed misleading”

The Perodua Service Centre in Kuantan was contacted by the media today (August 8), and the manager of the place has since clarified the matter. He admitted that the pictures used in the dress code signage were indeed misleading, and after a discussion with the head office, he decided to remove the signage at the time being to stop further misconceptions.

He also assured the people that customers are allowed to wear what they want and the dress code was merely an encouragement.

“We do encourage visitors to follow the dress etiquette, but we won’t go as far as prohibiting them from wearing what they want.”

As of now, the manager said they have yet to receive complaints from the public, except from Perodua’s agents who relayed the feedback from some customers.

To those in Kuantan, or any Perodua users in the country, don’t worry about the dress codes! As stated by the manager, it was merely an encouragement, and you’re not bound to follow the etiquette strictly.
